Shared Decision Making in Sleaford.
Dual-hub delivery
The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.
Every shared decision-making work placement in Sleaford is mobilised from one of our two clinical hubs — Halifax (West Yorkshire) as the lead and Chiswick (West London) as paired cover. The dual-hub model is unique to BCS: no other clinical pharmacy provider in the UK runs Northern and Southern hubs with shared SOPs, shared supervision and same-week cross-cover. That is what guarantees continuity of shared decision-making work for a Sleaford PCN through sickness, leave and turnover.
- Lead delivery from the BCS Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub
- Paired cover from BCS Chiswick (West London) — same SOPs, same supervision
- Same-week sickness, leave and maternity cover guaranteed
- ARRS-compliant, GPhC-registered, IP-qualified workforce
- One SLA, one report, one escalation point
Sleaford · local context
Sleaford PCNs sit within the local East Midlands ICB (Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland; Nottingham and Nottinghamshire; Derby and Derbyshire; Lincolnshire; or Northamptonshire).
Sleaford PCNs cover former industrial or coalfield communities with notable CVD and respiratory burden — pharmacist programmes lean on high-risk drug monitoring and LTC reviews.

Why Sleaford PCNs choose BCS for shared decision-making work.
Solo recruitment for shared decision-making work in Sleaford leaves a network exposed to sickness, maternity and retention risk, and rarely meets the supervision standard ICBs now ask for. BCS removes all of that — pharmacists are part of a clinical team, supervision is built in, and continuity is guaranteed by the Halifax (West Yorkshire)/Chiswick (West London) dual-hub.
Whether you are a single Sleaford PCN starting your first shared decision-making work programme, or a federation coordinating shared decision-making work across multiple East Midlands networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.
Frequently asked questions — Shared Decision Making in Sleaford.
Is SDM evidenced for DES?+
Yes — every BCS SMR carries a documented SDM note that satisfies DES evidence requirements.
Does BCS already deliver shared decision-making work in Sleaford?+
BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across East Midlands from our Halifax (West Yorkshire) hub with paired cover from Chiswick (West London), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise shared decision-making work in Sleaford. Get in touch and we'll confirm current capacity.
What makes the dual-hub model different?+
BCS is the only UK clinical pharmacy provider running both a Northern (Halifax) and Southern (Chiswick) hub. That means same-week cross-cover, one SOP set across the country, and no service gap when staff are off — something single-hub or single-region providers cannot match.
How quickly can BCS mobilise shared decision-making work in Sleaford?+
In most cases BCS mobilises shared decision-making work for a Sleaford PCN within 4 to 6 weeks of contract sign-off, with remote prescribing back-up available from the hub sooner if needed.
